Shocker: Palin's a Creationist

In case you missed it, Sarah Palin now jons Mike Huckabee, Tom Tancredo, and others in the GOP in denial of the reality of evolution:

For those of you not up to speed, saying you believe in microevolution but not macroevolution is like saying you believe I can walk across the house, but can't walk across the street, without bothering to identify what exactly is the barrier preventing me from doing so. It's ignorance or dishonesty at best, lunacy at worst.

Palin's now officially a loon as well as an ignoramus. Her allegiance to the ideas of her witch-hunter minister takes away any benefit of the doubt. BTW, wasn't there a major party who was all about judging people by their associations recently?

Wouldn't it be more like saying, "you walked across the house, but no one ever saw you walk across the street"?

No, because it isn't necessary to witness something to know it happened, and because the anti-evolution argument implies that macroevolution can't happen, not merely that it hasn't been witnessed.
